The Weeks in more detail
The Beach & Phi Phi (1,2 and 4 week versions)
We have exclusive rights on one of the ultimate Experiences in Thailand, a night spent on The Beach! What has become a bit of a tourist trap in the day, regains its magic as the last of the day boats leave and you arrive to spend the night camping out under the stars.
The beach is one of the most spectular beaches in the world, and being there with just a small group, having it all to yourself is such a cool experience.
Your hosts for the evening will be our Thai team, ready to cook you up a mouth watering Panang chicken curry (Vegitarians are also catered for) as you watch the sun set into the Andaman sea. As it gets dark, the stars come out and the moon shines on the water. Fire shows begin and that party heats up lasting well into the night for those that want to. If you want to sneak off and get your head down, there is nothing like drifting off to sleep with the night sky revelaing thousands of stars and the sound of the water gently relaxing you to sleep.
The next morning, breakfast will be served, and you can enjoy the beach before the day trippers arrive, then you will be taken back to Phi Phi Don to your accommodation for a well deserved shower.
Phi Phi is a mecca for backpackers that want to party in cool beach bars and chill on stunning beaches, you won´t miss out, as you will have a 2 full days here, to explore and enjoy at your leisure.
Undiscovered Thailand (1,2 and 4 week versions)
After Phi Phi, it is time to hit the road and discover some hidden gems in the region. Our guides are locals, and know about places that you will not find in a brochure in a travel agent.
We will take you to:
An ancient temple with 1237 steps to visit the monks and the resident monkeys.
A night market to take in the sites and sounds and having a delicious Pad Thai
Go Elephant Trekking
Visit a natual spa and thermal pools

The Camp set in Phuket, will focus on getting you fit and in shape, run by professional personal trainers and fitness instructors you will really benefit from 6 days of training at the camp. When not training you can explore Phuket at your leisure, hit the beaches of Patong, Kata or Nai harn or trek up to the big Bhudda.
